- Oh really? Two in Aurora and one rip-off joint down town. For a
- metropolitan area with 13-15 million people? Ha. Thriving? Not quite. I
- know all of the dealers. They are just getting by, for now, NOT thriving.
- The two dealers in the FAR western suburb of Chicago (Aurora) are great
- guys, but it's unfortunate that they are both so close to each other and so
- far from the rest of the city and suburbs :-(
